BATTERY INSERTION AND CHECK

Four 1.5V silver oxide batteries (Eveready S76E or Mallory
MS-76H) power the TTL meter and electronic shutter of the ES II.
The power circuit is on only when you depress the shutter release
button (lightly for meter reading and completely for electronic
shutter) with the shutter speed dial set at "AUTOMATIC". When
not operating the camera, be sure to keep the shutter dial off the
"AUTOMATIC" settings, or use the shutter lock to prevent waste
of battery power when accidentally touching the shutter release
button.
To insert the batteries, open the battery housing cover on the
bottom of the lens mount by shifting the cover release pin

the (+) (—) marks inside the housing. Close the cover by first
inserting the two hooks
housing lock pin in.
One set of batteries lasts about one year. To check the life, set the
shutter dial at "AUTOMATIC", and while looking through the
viewfinder, push the battery check button next to the exposure
factor control dial. If the meter needle drops to the center notch,
the batteries have sufficient capacity. If it does not, replace all
four batteries.
